Description Moez Roy 2015-06-15 16:41:14 UTC
Description of problem:
SELinux is preventing restorecon from 'associate' accesses on the filesystem /sys/kernel/debug.

*****  Plugin filesystem_associate (99.5 confidence) suggests   **************

If you believe restorecon should be allowed to create debug files
Then you need to use a different command. You are not allowed to preserve the SELinux context on the target file system.
Do
use a command like "cp -p" to preserve all permissions except SELinux context.

*****  Plugin catchall (1.49 confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that restorecon should be allowed associate access on the debug filesystem by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep restorecon /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
